A SENSE OF INTEGRITY

-

RIA VELANDO BANUELOS

What an overwhelmi­ng joy, great privilege and unexplaina­ble emotion when you know you have done your task with a sense of integrity. The paramount aim of your action is to stand very firm and unmovable though there would be the presence of a reflected glow of light glitters and shines your minds and trying to capture even your hear t .

And yet, you can freely open your eyes to look everyone in their eyes because you knew to yourself that you have done your part so well.

Being honest and true all of your life in any situations will speak for you how well you performed and fulfilled your duties with all your heart. It provides satisfacti­on, contentmen­t as well as gladness and elatedness of something that you did or something that happened to you.

When you have planted a good seed, certainly you will reap good fruits. What you are doing now will determine your tomorrow.

That’s why in life, we have the will to choose. It is your left hand or the other? Meaning, the way we choose things will be depending upon our decisions in life. Same is true with the work or task assigned to us.

Are we going to do it with the sense of integrity or do it selfishly? A sense of integrity is like a good weapon in life which benefits us through many advantages and can be developed naturally without any cost. It gives us everything expected in life whereas a single lie may ruin our life by ruining relationsh­ips and losing all our privileges of being trustworth­y in the heart of our family, friends, coworkers and other close ones.

People who are used of telling the truth or doing what is ought to do can build a better relationsh­ips and help to strengthen­ing our ch ar act er.

By living with a sense of integrity, a person will find that his life is more blessed, enriched and meaningful.
